Need to have username only in URL and mobile responsive issue

Dear sir or madam,

we need to have the profile's URL with username suffixed only, but instead the URL is displayed in the following format:

../cb-profile/3600-username_displayed_here-ucy-ac-cy

preferable the following format:

../cb-profile/username_displayed_here

How can this be fixed?


Also, the profile page is displayed normally in desktop but not on mobile devices (use of portrait and "Contact Info" tab positioned in the left side of middle area and 2 custom tabs in the middle area, latter displaying user profile information), can I have some instructions on how to control the column width for responsive issues? We use Joomla 4 with Cassiopeia template and need main left, main and main right column widths.


Thank you,

Use the "Your Profile URL" field to custom the profile URLs. User id is added when Joomla's URL alias function determines that the username is not URL safe.

Thank you for your prompt response, how can I exactly achieve this? Is it somewhere documented online?

I mean, where can I find the "Your Profile URL" field setting in CB? I searched in CB's configuration but I was unsuccessful.


Thank you,

Hello, I found the "alias" field in CB Fields with title "Your Profile URL", could you please guide me on what exactly I should set in order that the public profile view URL has only the username suffix, i.e.

../cb-profile/petros


Thanks again,

Dear Krileon,

alternatively, if only User ID is shown that would also be satisfactory.


Thanks again for your help,

Edit the Profile URL field from frontend or backend profile edit and add a profile alias there. That's the only way to customize the URLs. For SEO to work we need to be able to reverse the value so we can actually find a profile. If the username can't be reversed to match a user we have to prefix the user id. There is no getting rid of this behavior. You can only customize that URL by using the Profile URL field and nothing more. If you want to set the Profile URL automatically and programmatically you'll have to use CB Auto Actions to do that.
